Hey. I'm 19, and have been lifting weights for about a year and half, two years. Recently I've started getting pains in my left ulna bone, just below the left wrist, particularly while working my biceps (palm facing upwards during exercise). I'm not sure what the cause is, as I do exactly the same things on the right arm as I do the left, including same weight etc.

When I started on the current weight for bicep curls, I was fine at first, but after about a month I started getting these pains. I'm due for an appointment with my GP in the next week or so, but I just wanna check if anyone knows what it could be, and what could help it etc.

The pain is a dull ache, and it's of an average pain. Usually occurs when the moment I let go of the weights, although the past few days it's started hurting during the exercise, so I've stopped working biceps until I've got it sorted.

There is no pain while relaxing the arm, but if I try to wave the pain comes back.

When you do the curls are you bending your wrist? Your wrist should be stationary, bending your elbow only. If you are bending your wrist in order to lift then your weight is too high. Try doing it with a lighter weight and keep your wrist from bending. That may or may not be your problem, but it is worth checking out.

Does that mean there could be a fracture in the bone though? It started doing it with heavy weight now it does it with the light stuff too.

This is weird, I have the same exact condition as you. My ulna hurts badly only when I do bicep curls on the left arm, not the right. As someone mentioned before, I think it's because I am lifting the weight incorrectly (especially because I am right hand dominant). I would let it heal for several days, then try being very careful not to twist the wrist.

I let mine heal for 2 weeks started working it after 2 days was gone again , my pain is exactly 5 inched down from my wrist on that small ulna bone,
